HRO is a good place to shop, good customer support, free shipping , and tax free if the dont have a store in your state.

I pulled the thread titled FCC bans Baofeng from and artical that I read in a Google news feed. Finding it very misleading and basically false. Sorry for the bad info.

. Yeah, I know what you mean, my buddy has a 42’ Hateras Sportfish. You better have a gas mask when he fires it up, sitting at the dock! LOL I like to go up on the tower, what a ride a view.

Im just stating the facts, I was threre, you werent. Apparenty your lack of knowledge of boating is a contributing factor in this discussion. First, bimini style anchoring is when you drop two anchors in opposite directions NOT allowing it to swing into a headwind. On a Cruiser style boat, the...

Thank You

Maybe you should check the boat design of a cruiser with a transom door and what bimini style anchoring is and what can happen with a wind direction change before you run your mouth and call someone ignorant, look it up it happened at Ponce Inlet. ******************

PB Blaster didnt do the trick? DAMN! Looks like that tool might be the last resort, sure beats $1000

Fort Desoto?

Like how you did the light bar, nice rig Very nice!

I try to keep it at least 50’ away from my van. I also have a carbon monixide/ smoke detector. If there is a security issue with the gen I chain it to a tree facing it behind (cutting down the noise factor) and the exhaust away from the van and always taking into consideration of my neighbors...

Wow! Sounds like a really nice system and a great installation job. Im sure it will give you years of dependable service.

I know what you mean I had it mounted on my bench at home but I couldnt take it to different work sites so I mounted it on a 2x10 and use 2 large C clamps attach it in different locations or have a coworker stand on it. I even attach it to a trailer bunk pad if one is around the boat yard.

This is what I like about sites like this, Sharing ideas, even little ones can make a world of difference!

Great idea with the shower, nothing worse than driving home covered in saltwater.

The customers had to do their own sailboat rigging because of the liability factor if they would lose a mast or...

I was a Mgr at one of the West Marine stores in Orlando for 10 years. The old managment was terrible as were their pricing. It was hard to sell a quart of wax for $40 when you could buy it down the street for $20. LOL! I would always tell my customers when I was showing them a product “ now...

Check out this bad boy, Im retired now but I used to wire the big offshore fishing boats 30-40 footers with trips or quad engines. They would bring the boats right from the factory,while the mechanics would be mounting the engines I would be installing all the elecrtonics, usually 2-3 18”...

Icom, Yaesu, Kenwood are all great radios, its like Chevy or Ford. Yes you will need a license. A good to take practice exams is Eham.net the practice exams grade you and tell you the correct answers you got wrong. Every time you reset it gives you a different set of questions. Its pretty simple...
